Diagnosis of Vibrio cholerae O1 Infection in Africa [PDF]

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2013
Isolation of Vibrio cholerae O1 is necessary for cholera outbreak confirmation. Rapid diagnostic testing of fecal specimens, based on lipopolysaccharide detection of V. cholerae O1 or O139, may assist in early outbreak detection and surveillance. Cary-Blair transport medium is recommended for specimen transport. Filter paper, although used in epidemics,

Non-O1 Vibrio cholerae unlinked to cholera in Haiti [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012
Beginning with the observations of John Snow, many formal epidemiologic and molecular studies have corroborated the idea that cholera toxin-producing Vibrio cholerae (the agent of cholera) can move great distances via human activity. Recently “shoe leather”-based epidemiologic and whole genome-based molecular approaches have provided compelling ...
